Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again -- POTO
Castle on a Cloud -- Les Miz
Not a Whole Song, but the one line reprise from MOTN to end the show -- "It's over now, the Music of the Night." -- POTO
Phantom Faces at the Window -- Les Miz
The one about innocents going off to war (to the tune of "Lovely Ladies") -- Les Miz
Anatevka Reprise when everyone is leaving the town -- Fiddler on the Roof
Edelweiss -- Sound of Music (because everyone in retrospect knows what the Anschluss started)
If/Then -- almost everything towards the end of the married with children timeline, from "I Hate You" on.
Note: It's the heartbreak in the middle of Les Miz that makes it so hard for me to watch, including "On My Own," which others have mentioned.

Be on your own - Nine
Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist.
Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino.
This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more.

Where in the World- The Secret Garden
Sirens (Reprise) + Farewell Good Angel- Jane Eyre
Just Another Love Story- Passion
Pretty Lies- The Count of Monte Cristo
Lisa Carew- Jekyll and Hyde
Anything out of Sydney Carton's mouth in a Tale of Two Cities
Gentil + Why- Beauty and the Beast (Not the Disney version)
I prefer ensembles/duets, and nostalgia may be what I am searching for more so than heartbreak, I was tempted to include songs like the Johanna reprise from Sweeney Todd and the Epilogue from Les Mis. I adore many of the songs already named as well, but am trying to find new things to bring up.

Cabaret can be staged as a response to heartbreak, but the song itself is not about heartbreak.
